Solution

Knowing this, we can take microscopic mushrooms and lay them on a tray of jellyfish proteins. Including other parts of the electronic in the system, we will provide a sensor in the phone that with sense when the phone is turned off so the tray can be covered, blocking the natural light. In addition, the mushrooms will be able to emit every color because they will be assembled in a RGB formation. The screen should be safe for your eyes! 

The mushrooms in the electronic device will feed off the dead jellyfish proteins. This way they can survive and reproduce more to provide light. Once the jellyfish proteins run out in the tray, there can be replacements to add in more. We call this invention: screensavers.

Problem

  • Today’s electronic devices use a source of technology called LED. LED emits blue light as strong as ever, making us more vulnerable to the damage.

  • Blue light, natural or artificial have very short wavelengths, resulting in higher amounts of energy

  • The blue light or (HEV) high energy visible light flickers more easily than lights with longer wavelengths. These strong flickers produces a glare that causes eye strain, headaches, and physical or mental fatigue.

  • Drastic exposure to the artificial blue light from electronics causes serious long term damage to eyes, since our eyes do not develop any protection from the light.

  • According to studies, 60% of the people in the world spend at least 6 hours in front of a digital device every day.

  • Harmful effects include disruption of the circadian rhythm ( physical, mental, & behavioral changes according to the time of day; body’s signal time to sleep, eat, etc.), Digital Eyestrain Syndrome, risk of certain types of cancers (iris melanoma & large choroidal melanoma), heart disease, obesity, diabetes, depression, and of course, loss of vision.

  • Two American surveys released on July 2014 concluded that of children age 12 - 15, 74% of them spend at least 2 hours a day watching TV or on the computer.
